They even look alike... I think our Skyrim characters are long lost siblings. :P

 

 

My archer in Skyrim is a Khajiit thief as well.

 

Another! It has to be the varricmancer psyche link.

Varric decides that the best course of action is to find a dusty old tome to bore himself to sleep. He walk out of his room and begin to make his way down the dark hallway. As he turn around a corner he can hear raised voices in the distance. He follow the sounds until he stand outside the Inquisitor's room. Something is going on, there's shouting inside. What does he do?

 

A - Shrugs it of and keep walking to the library.

B - Attempts to eavesdrop through the door.

C - Decides to enter the room.

C - Decides to enter the room.

 

Varric presses his ear to the door. He can hear several voices arguing. One belongs to the Inquisitor, one to the Seeker and the third one he's not sure. The voices are muffled through the thick wood, but he hears someone coming to the door. What does he do?

 

A- Hide in the shadows to see who comes out.

B- Continue on his way to the library before he gets caught

C- Enter the room before the person inside reaches the door.

Quickly, he takes a step back into the darkness and remains still as the door opens with force. Cassandra emerges with an agitated look on her face, storming off in the other direction. He exhales a bit in relief that she didn't notice, but is soon brought back to reality when he remembers the door is now wide open in front of him. Inside, he sees someone else with the Inquisitor. Who?

 

A- Josephine

B - Cullen

C- Leliana

Varric sees the spymaster with the Inquisitor, still discussing something in hushed tones. Varrics finds a better hiding spot and waits. Soon Leliana leaves as well and goes in the opposite direction the Seeker went in. What does Varric do?

 

A- Enter the Inquisitor's room.

B- Go after Cassandra.

C- Go after Leliana.

Varric enters the room, and finds the Inquisitor sitting by the desk with a tired expression. "Everything alright?" he asks the Inquisitor. "Maker, not now Varric. I'm tired and I just want to get some rest."  How does Varric respond?

 

A - Ask the Inquisitor about the discussion with Cassandra and Leliana

B - Attempt to cheer the Inquisitor up

C - Leave the room

"Tired from your shouting match, are you?" Varric asks. The Inquisitor's shoulders stiffen suddenly. "You heard that?" he/she asks uncomfortably. "Hard not to. I was on my way to the library and I heard the shouting. What was that all about anyway?" He asks. What is the Inquisitor's response?

 

A- It was an argument about the 'Herald of Andraste' title and it's repercussions. (honest)

B- Just some problems with supply lines (evasive)

C- None of your business (dismissive)

Clearly it's the choice all the cool kids make.  Oh, and us too ;)

 

I liked the 'snow leopard' look and it went with the ridiculously involved backstory I came up with while waiting for the GotY/Legendary edition to come out.

 

Let's play a game! Choose Varric's adventure! I'll start!

 

Great idea!

"Can't imagine anyone getting that angry about logistics," Varric says.  "Well, except for Cullen.  He really loves that stuff."  The Inquisitor tenses and looks at Varric warily.  "Mind you," Varric continues, "being a leader is tricky.  All those little problems... it would make anyone mad."  Varric rubs his chin.  Does he....

 

A- Pursue the matter further?

B- Let the Inquisitor tell him in his own time?

C- Go and pester Cassandra about it?

"Well, I'll let you get some shut-eye then. Good night" Varric says as he closes the door behind him. The Inquisitor mumbles a 'good night' back as he leaves. "Let's see what the Seeker has to say about this" he ponders as he makes his way down the hall where Cassandra disappeared earlier. It leads to the training room. Cassandra is practicing sword swings on a dummy. What does Varric do?

 

A- Stay quiet and watch.

B- Knock on the door to attract Cassandra's attention.

C- Walk up to Cassandra and tap her on the arm.

And all he finds is roasted nug. Varric shakes his head and thinks why do people eat these guys? they are just skinny little furrless things. it's pitiful to eat this. then he looks around and sees the inquisitor bought all new golden cutlery and understands why they can only afford to eat nug. He then decides

 

A. Eat the nug, go back to bed before Cole finds him (Cole lurks in the night btw)

B. refuses and goes to get some ale to drift him off to sleep

C. Gets Bianca. Poultry is gonna be his late night dinner.

 

((great idea btw))

The Seeker is obviously upset. While intrigued, Varric knows how dangerous it is to get on her bad side. He decides to leave her alone until she's cooled down. But just as he turns around to walk away she breaks the silence. "I know you're there dwarf, come out."  How do Varric respond?

 

A - Try to defuse the situation with humor

B - Question her about what happened with the Inquisitor and Leliana

C - Stay silent and walk away from her

"Hey Seeker. You might want to take it easy. I could hear that racket all the way from my room. I came down to see what was going on" Varric says, hoping the Seeker will not realize there was no time for that particular sequence of events to have taken place. She does not. "Sorry. I have a lot on my mind" she replies. What does Varric do?

 

A- Press for details.

B- Stick to humor to avoid a confrontation.

C- Comfort Cassandra.

 

 

@Bliss: we've already got a story underway. Maybe another round later?

Varric isn't convinced but shrugs and nods anyway. He shouldn't expect total honesty from the Inquisitor, s/he has plenty else on their mind and besides, they aren't very close.  Varric wonders how Hawke is doing. Where she is and if (insert love interest) is still tagging along. "You look like you're staring off somewhere far away," says the Inquisitor, "What's on your mind?"

 

A. Thinking about an old friend (honest)

B. Problems with the supply lines. (evasive/funny)

C. I don't like the color of those drapes. (random)

Of course! Just continue from the latest! (that's what I meant earlier. It just gets confusing if we get two different storylines going.)

 

Here:

"Hey Seeker. You might want to take it easy. I could hear that racket all the way from my room. I came down to see what was going on" Varric says, hoping the Seeker will not realize there was no time for that particular sequence of events to have taken place. She does not. "Sorry.

"Such as?" asks Varric. Cassandra eyes him wearily, "Why do you want to know, dwarf?" Varric leans his shoulder against the wall and shrugs, "Dunno. Somehow I find the idea of me questioning you for answers to be... refreshing?" For a moment Cassandra looks as if she would hit him but instead a cool laugh escapes her. "Fine, Varric. I think I owe you that." What does Cass talk about?

 

A. Missing documents.

B. Suspicious activity on the southern border.

C. Her feelings toward the Inquisitor.

B. Suspicious activity on the southern border.

C. Her feelings toward the Inquisitor.

"Some sensitive documents have disappeared" Cassandra explains. Varric adjusts his pose against the wall. "How sensitive are we talking about here?" He asks. "Reports from Leliana's spies. She received them early this evening but they have since vanished. Which means we have a traitor in the castle" she replies. Varric straightens up. What does he do?

 

A- Offer help.

B- Continue to ask for details.

C- Shrug and leave.

"No one has access to Leliana's documents but-" "Her most trusted assistants," Cassandra nodded as she finished Varric's sentence, "Someone's been compromised." Cassandra's fists were clenched. "Hold on there, Seeker. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding." She speaks through pursed lips, "Do you really think that?" Does Varric really think that?

 

A. Of course. You need to give people the benefit of a doubt.

B. He's not certain, they need to get to the bottom of this.

C. No, not truly. There's no room for gray here.

"A lot of things could have happened. Maybe someone took it by mistake. Maybe she misplaced it. Maybe it fell behind her desk and she didn't see it" Varric offered, counting possible scenarios on his fingers. Cassandra looked dubious. "What do you propose to do then?" she asks. What does Varric propose?

 

A- Search Leliana's office for the missing letter.

B- Question Leliana's assistants.

C- Question the guards on duty near Leliana's quarters.
